Romance Novels
So this summer I got into reading romance novels. Why did no one tell me how good (addicting) they are?! All I ever heard was stuff along these lines: "I love trashy romance novels!" When I hear that phrase all I think is, great, I don't want to read that, then.
However, I downloaded a LOT of romance novels. And they're so addicting. I read ... eight in eight days. Yes, eight books in just over one week. Yeah, the writing isn't the best I've seen, and a lot of the stories follow the same basic plot: Guy sees girl, guy wants girl. They then do several steps (make out, books, hands in the nether regions, mouth, sex, more sex) but I have found that I really enjoy the stories. Yeah, reading all the sex stuff is great, too, but the stories ...
I wished I lived in a romance novel, there's adventure, and excitement. There's hot, hot, sex. And they are always so passionately in love with each other. It makes me wonder if people actually feel like that. You know? That they touch each other and it's as if they're burning, they're on fire, with how much sensual desire there is between them, to just be with the other person. And the woman ALWAYS has an amazing orgasm (I know that isn't what happens in real life).
I just wish that sometimes romance novels transfered to real life. Feeling such a need, such a possessiveness, such a desire ... the last few I've read, they've been set in England right after the wars with Napoleon, and they're about former spies ... they're so possessive and would do ANYTHING to keep the woman they wanted to be with safe, ANYTHING. And when something happened to her ... well, there was always a heroic show.
I guess sometimes I just get too caught up in fiction.
I've read a few different series's by different authors. Books that take place in the time after the Napoleonic War. It just makes me want to live in that time period. Where there were such high ideals of propriety, of what a man should and should not do, of needing an escort. An escort, for goodness sake! It's just so ... magical, even though no magic is involved.
